Six Years On, Andaman Railway Remains a Pipe Dream
In 2010-11, the Indian government sanctioned a survey for a broad-gauge railway line connecting Port Blair and Diglipur in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The project was envisioned as a transformative step for the archipelago, significantly reducing travel time and enhancing connectivity. Initially targeted for completion by September 2014, the railway remains incomplete more than a decade later, raising concerns about delays in critical infrastructure development.
